Re: SE POLK #1

'01. And i think you are correct. Us hillbillies cant do much out in our country towns. JK.

Snead has looked very impressive. But as i wrote somewhere else, the only game i went to this year was the loss to Dowling. bummer. But they are back with redemption and are going all the way. And i have no source confirming that.

I agree, I have been really impressed with Snead. He is a very good dual threat QB. I would rank him close to A. Arnaud in his Senior year at Ames, but probably a notch below. Is Snead being recruited by D1 schools?

Re: SE POLK #1

Does Xavier still drop to 3A for some sports? If so, the number of championships is not nearly as impressive as if they are coming in 4A. I know Soccer only has two divisions, what about Cross Country?

Re: SE POLK #1

I am sorry that you are mislead. It is sad that you have to combine schools to just get a good team. Hmmmm...

Actually, by the way it sounds, you guys are the valley of the metro area, so it will be a tough competition. Good luck ( you'll need it).

Haha, I am actually surprised you knew that information, although to be fair, we combined schools nearly 10 years ago.

I think the last school to win a state championship from Cedar Rapids metro was Cedar Rapids LaSalle in the 1980's. I was a freshman at LaSalle before the schools consolidated. It is interesting to me that in a way, if Xavier Wins, the only team to win a state championship in the last 25 years from Cedar Rapids will be the schools I attended.

I think they are in 3A for cross country. Some sports they do drop to 3A, some they are in 4A, it just depends on the sport. Although, regardless of 3A or 4A, we play 4A competition year round during the season because the schools in our conference are 4A, only during the actual tournaments would we only strictly play our own class division. IMO, a state championship is impressive no matter what class you are in.
